Bong Faner & Nellie Monzon haven't seen each other since the Class 1976 reunion in Cerritos, California in 1989.  They both live in the Los Angeles area, 50 miles (81 km) or a one-hour drive apart, and keep in touch by phone, e-mail and an occasional Internet chat.  This meeting took place when Nellie had to bring her cousin, Merly Monzon (II Class of 1973), to Bong's house.  Merly is a friend of Bong's from way back and was visiting California with her husband and two daughters, they live in Durham, North Carolina.
